Current Projects

The Cue Project in North Murchison, Western Australia, is 70 km west of Meekatharra and only a mere 15 km from the Big Bell gold deposit (2.9 Moz). Comprising three exploration licences, it benefits from established mining infrastructure and nearby processing facilities.
Situated in the Murchison Province of the Archean Yilgarn Craton, the project lies along the Big Bell Shear Zone, a 100 km structure linked to significant gold mineralisation. Historical gold production in the area, such as Meekatharra (3 Moz) and Bluebird (3 Moz), highlights its strong exploration potential.

The Stella Range Project is located in the northeast corner of the Eastern Goldfields Province of the Archean Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia. The property lies ~120 km SE of the Laverton Goldfield (20+ Moz Au) and ~100 km to the east of the Tropicana Gold field (10+ Moz Au). The Stella Range Project is primarily considered prospective for nickel sulphide mineralisation. Secondary exploration targets include nickel laterite, gold and platinum group elements.

Narndee-Fenceline is located in the northeast corner of the Eastern Goldfields Province of the Archean Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia. The project is approximately 500km to the northeast of Perth and 75km to the southeast of Mt Magnet. The Fence Line Project is considered prospective for VMS hosted copper-zinc deposits and nickel-copper-PGE deposits based on the prospective local geology and conceptual targeting.

The Spinifex Project is located in in the Kalgoorlie Province, specifically in the southern part of the Archaean Southern Cross – Forrestania Greenstone Belt, which stretches over 300 km in a north-northwest direction. The project is approximately 400km to the east of Perth and 140km to the south-east of Southern Cross. The Project is at a conceptual exploration stage, considered prospective for lithium mineralisation based on proximity to operating lithium mines and prospects and favourable geology.
